\ thanks. btw, i had a feeling the caps would pull out of that slump you were in early. i know the record was crap early on but they were not that far behind points wise and now? there they are. yes a weak division helps but it is what it is. once the playoffs start anything can happen.

I wasn't worried about the Caps bouncing back, they were far better than their record. I was worried about running out of time in a short season. At 7 points after 11 games, the Caps needed, reasonably, 47 points in the next 37 games. That's about a 105 point pace over an 82 game schedule. They had to play great just to get in the conversation.

del Zotto apparently not even gonna get a hearing for the headshot to Neal. Assume I've made the same rant I've been making all season regarding the NHL's piss poor efforts to protect players from head injuries.
